If you are talking about songs done by cover bands I really like Type O Negative's rendition of Cinamon Girl.

Believe it or not, I always thought ELO and Sweet sounded similar!
 
Revco- Do Ya think I'm Sexy

Spann Ranch- Shot Down In Flames

Todies- Cars (studio version)

Alkaline Trio- Bye Bye Love

X2 on Cinamon Girl, and that funky cool *** outro!

X2 on anything L7 (okay, almost anything)

Judas Priest has to be Green Manalishi, esp the 1984 Long Beach live version.

No one said Sex Pistols- My Way?


...and Nine Inch Nails changed music... as much as Nirvana, and the Beatles, and Johnny Cash.
